An unidentified armed robbery suspect, abandoned by his accomplices, was beaten and stabbed to death by a mob of food vendors and customers Thursday afternoon in Juarez, Chihuahua, according to Mexican news reports.
The lynching took place at the Parral barbeque restarant near the intersection of calles Benemérito de las Américas y Plutarco ElÃas Calles, when a group of four suspects attempted to hold up the restaurant.
As the suspects started to leave as it became apparent they were robbing the place, a crowd fell upon the last suspect and beat him to death. His other three accomplices escaped the crowd's wrath.
The owner said the crowd's reaction was a natural one and took place all at once.
This is the third such event in Juarez in three weeks, the last being a mob in the Villas de Santiago district Wednesday morning where a mob fell upon a burglary suspect and attempted to immolate him.
Mexican Federal agents rescued the suspect before the crowd could set fire to him. |
